"Publisher guidelines" refers to a set of formal and/or informal instructions, protocols, policies, rules, standards, formatting requirements, editorial criteria, or the like established or adopted by a publishing entity, editorial board, or dissemination platform that may govern the submission, review, formatting, ethics, authorship, citation, or dissemination of manuscripts or other content. Synonyms for "publisher guidelines" include "submission criteria", "editorial standards", "publication requirements", "formatting rules", and "editorial policies". The publisher guidelines may vary between different publishers or publications and may evolve over time. The publisher guidelines may include explicit or implied expectations regarding style, tone, length, citation format, originality, conflict of interest disclosures, ethics disclosures, data sharing, image quality, or the like. The publisher guidelines may be expressed in natural language, structured metadata, machine-readable formats, or combinations thereof. The publisher guidelines may be accessed manually by a human or programmatically by a system and may serve as reference standards for screening, evaluating, or formatting submissions (e.g. manuscripts) in editorial, academic, legal, or commercial contexts.
